The Why's and What's of 1 through N-Tier Application Architectures

Scott NemecComputer Sciences Corp

Abstract

Over the last 5 decades computer applications have followed similar patterns
in how they have been architected and how they use resources. From the
single task computing machines of the 50's to the distributed nature of
Web applications today, the archetypes can be described by the location
and relationship between the parts doing computation and the resources
those computations have needed. This talk will try to describe these
archetypes and prognosticate about what the future might bring.
